Ya, can't beat good 'ol M6. Try to get something between 200 -218, that's the side we usually stay in, I'm in 205.

Got the equipment at FAST member Mike Nowicki's and am watching the rain here in Flint, gonna meet Mark Stein and Mike tomorrow to set up the site. Mikey Ross is at the Gas Nats in Celina and should be by Sunday.

Weather doesn't look too bad now that this big low that's been raining on us for a week is finally moving off. <_< Gonna be breazy from the NW and W tomorrow (a good direction for Thread Lake) and maybe Sat am but should settle down later Saturday, Sunday looks great. Air should also be good as their talking lows in the 30's and only 50's during the day.

Dress warm if you're coming! :blink:

Got the site all set up today in the wind and rain, what a nasty day!

Looks like the wind should ease off tomorrow during the day, we won't be in a big hurry to get out there on the morning.

Sunday's lookin' good!

 

[Terry Keeley]

Well unfortunatelly today was a blow out, wind from the north down the pond all day. Tapered off quite a bit just before dark and tomorrow's looking good.

If you ran at the Gas Nats and aren't completely boated out come and have some fun with us tomorrow.

 

[Thomas Hulbert]

keep us informed Terry and try and stay dry.

Windy up in Alliston for both Saturday and Sunday.

 

[Terry Keeley]

Well we sure haven't been too lucky at Thread Lake lately, we had great air Sunday morning at 102.7% (or -700' density altitude) but only had about an hour of decent water before the wind kicked up again.

Thanks to those that made the trip to support us, especially Trent Ghattas and Bob (Prop Works) Austin who came all the way from MD and Jersey, hope to see you again!

Also, a huge thanks go to fellow FAST members Mike Nowicki, Mark Stein, Mikey Ross and Walt Radzinski, without your hard work it just wouldn't happen.
